Item 5. OTHER EVENTS

     Aames Capital Corporation (the "Sponsor") and an affiliate, Aames Capital
Acceptance Corp., registered up to $2,800,000,000 principal amount of
asset-backed certificates and asset-backed bonds under Rule 415 of the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"), pursuant to a Registration
Statement on Form S-3, including a prospectus (Registration Statement File No.
333-21219) (the "Registration Statement"). Pursuant to the Registration
Statement, the Sponsor filed a Prospectus Supplement dated March 25, 1998, and
a Prospectus, dated December 16, 1997 (collectively, the "Prospectus"),
relating to $300,000,000 aggregate principal amount of Mortgage Pass-Through
Certificates, Series 1998-A (the "Certificates"), issued by Aames Mortgage
Trust 1998-A ("Trust") on March 30, 1998 (the "Closing Date"). The Certificates
consist of the Class A-1F, Class A-2F, Class A,3F, Class A-4F, Class A-5F,
Class A-6F, Class A-IO, Class A-1A, Class M-1A, Class M-2A and Class B-IA
Certificates (together, the "Offered Certificates"), Class R Certificates and
Class C Certificates. Only the Offered Certificates were offered by the
Prospectus.

     The Certificates represent the entire undivided interest in the Trust
created pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement dated as of March 1,
1998 (the "Pooling and Servicing Agreement") between the Sponsor, in the
capacity of Seller and Servicer, the Bankers Trust Company of California, N.A.,
as trustee (the "Trustee"). On the Closing Date, the corpus of the Trust
consisted primarily of (i) a pool (the "Mortgage Pool") of home equity mortgage
loans (together, the "Initial Mortgage Loans"), (ii) amounts on deposit in a
prefunding account (the "Prefunding Account") and a capitalized interest
account held by the Trustee. On the Closing Date, cash in the amount of
$93,100,020.22 (the "Prefunding Account Deposit") was deposited in the
Prefunding Account in the name of the Trustee. The Prefunding Account Deposit
was intended to be used for the purchase of additional home equity mortgage
loans satisfying the criteria specified in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement
(the "Subsequent Mortgage Loans") on or before March 30, 1998. Approximately
$45,622,783.85 of the Prefunding Account Deposit was allocated for the purchase
of Subsequent Mortgage Loans bearing fixed rates of interest to be included in
the Fixed Rate Group, and approximately $47,477,236.37 of the Prefunding
Account Deposit was allocated for the purchase of Subsequent Mortgage Loans
bearing adjustable rates of interest to be included in the Adjustable Rate
Group.

     On March 30, 1998, the Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, and the Sponsor
entered into a Subsequent Transfer Agreement, dated as of such date (the
"Subsequent Transfer Agreement"). Pursuant to the Subsequent Transfer
Agreement, the Trust purchased $45,841,272.29 aggregate principal balance of
Subsequent Mortgage Loans to be included in the Fixed Rate Group for a purchase
price equal to such balance and $47,783,159.43 aggregate principal balance of
Subsequent Mortgage Loans to be included in the Adjustable Rate Group for a
purchase price equal to such balance.

     The description of the Mortgage Pool in the Prospectus contained
information only with respect to the Initial Mortgage Loans as of the date
of the Prospectus. This Current Report on Form 8-K is being filed to update the
description of the Mortgage Pool contained in the Prospectus and to file copies
of certain final agreements executed in connection with the issuance of the
Certificates. Annex A which follows contains a description of the final
Mortgage Pool.

     Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the
same meaning ascribed to them in the Prospectus. The Prospectus has been filed
with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Rule 414(b)(2) under
file number 333-21219.

                                    ANNEX A:

                        DESCRIPTION OF THE MORTGAGE POOL

        The following is a brief description of certain terms of the Mortgage
Loans, including the Subsequent Mortgage Loans. Information contained herein is
presented with respect to the Initial Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off Date (as
defined in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) and with respect to the
Subsequent Mortgage Loans as of March 1, 1998 ("the Subsequent Cut-off Date").
The description of the Mortgage Pool below does not reflect any payments with
respect to the Mortgage Loans after the Cut-off Date or the Subsequent Cut-off
Date. The Mortgage Pool consists of 4,261 Mortgage Loans and has an aggregate
principal balance of $299,999,383.05.

FIXED RATE GROUP

        The Aggregate Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans in the Fixed Rate
Group was $149,999,626.76. Approximately 92.00%, 5.24% and 2.77% of the
Mortgaged Properties (by Cut-off Date or Subsequent Cut-off Date Principal
Balance, as applicable), were single family residences, two- to four-family
residences and units in condominium developments, respectively, and no more
than 0.45% of the Mortgage Loans in the Fixed Rate Group by applicable Cut-off
Date Principal Balance) were secured by Mortgaged Properties located in any
single postal ZIP code.

        The original Combined Loan-to-Value Ratio of any Mortgage Loan in the
Fixed Rate Group did not exceed 90.45% and the original weighted average
Combined Loan-to-Value Ratio of all Mortgage Loans in the Fixed Rate Group was
approximately 71.65%. The maximum and average loan sizes of the Mortgage Loans
in the Fixed Rate Group were $642,000 and approximately $56,327, respectively.
The average appraised value of the Mortgaged Properties securing Mortgage Loans
in the Fixed Rate Group at origination of the Mortgage Loans was approximately
$118,677.

        The interest rates borne by the Mortgage Loans (each, a "Mortgage
Interest Rate") in the Fixed Rate Group ranged from 6.500% per annum to
16.990% per annum. The weighted average Mortgage Interest Rate of the Mortgage
Loans in the Fixed Rate Group was approximately 10.511% per annum..

        The weighted average remaining term to stated maturity of the Mortgage
Loans in the Fixed Rate Group was approximately 296 months. The weighted
average term to maturity of the Mortgage Loans in the Fixed Rate Group was
approximately 298 months. The weighted average seasoning of the Mortgage Loans
in the Fixed Rate Group was approximately two months.

        Based on the Aggregate Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans in the
Fixed Rate Group, 95.37% of the Mortgage Loans provide for the payment of
principal and interest on a level basis to fully amortize such Mortgage Loans
over their respective stated terms. The remaining 4.63% of the Mortgage Loans in
the Fixed Rate Group are Balloon Loans which will provide for regular monthly
payments of principal and interest computed on the basis of an amortization term
of 360 months that is longer than the related term to stated maturity, with a
"balloon payment" due at stated maturity that will be significantly larger than
the monthly payments. The Mortgage Loans in the Fixed Rate Group have original
terms to maturity of up to 30 years.
